How deep does this basket go down and how often do you find that you empty it?
9772
Approximately 3 inches deep and empty it as needed. It works just like any other sink strainer, just designed for this particular sink
9773
This basket fits inside the drain - it is 2 1/4" deep. It acts as a strainer and I empty it after the dishwater drains.

without looking and measuring, I'd say about 3 inches. Frequency of emptying is directly proportional to how lazy you are with clearing your plate first - lol. I'd say it holds quite a bit before needing to dump - in fact the smell of rotting stuff gets to me usually before needing to dump it.

2 1/8" deep. How often depends on what I am cooking - some days more than once, some weeks not at all
9776
The basket is about 2 1/2" deep. I use it to catch whatever the strainer I put above it so nothing goes down the drain.

It is 2 inches deep. I empty it every time I use it and wipe it with a paper towel. That is to lessen the possibility of anything accidentally going down the drain and to control odor from food particals.

Basket is very light and easy to remove. A bit of jiggling to put back on track, but easy to do. Cleans up easily with any spray cleaner. You do not need to remove it to clean it. Cleaning it in place is super easy. But removing it is easy too. Hope that helps. I love mine and have them under counters in five different locations - two bathrooms and in the kitchen as well. I love them.

The bottom basket is about 8 inches across, the next one up 6 inches and the next 4. I haven't actually measured these, but that's my estimate as an engineer. The baskets have square bottoms, though, so that will limit the capacity a bit. However, I find that it fits a lot of volume if you carefully stack things on it. At its fullest, I've had about 4 yams, 4 garlic bulbs, a cantaloupe, 4 tomatoes, a bunch of bananas (I think 5 in the bunch), and still had room to spare. I've even put some weight on it to see if it would hold, and it showed very little in terms of stress and fatigue under weight. Hope this helps!

13-3/4"W X 16-1/2"D X 7-5/8"H. When the basket is placed in the compartment, there's 3/4" clearance above the basket.

Depend on what your using it for. I use it for walking only, which means I don't use the basket. Without the basket, you can open and close it in a second and pass it through a small space.

fill just under the edge of basket with in bottom then turn on. after setting timer it will shut off automatically

Probably 8-12 inches depending on how heavy your basket is. I'm careful with it as the under frame is plastic. Works well for what I need without spending a ton.

We play with ours while shallow 1" or less but as the water flows I think the most is 6 or 7 inches......and it is super easy to just step on the side and drain it out.....that happens while the kids play anyway

I just left the handle on in the down position. Don't really need it up to get the basket out.

Not each time. You have to watch how it is picking up debris. If it slows or stops, then you need to empty the basket. Remember it does not take too much to fill it up.

Yes, the basket slides completely out of the unit for easy emptying. Lining it with a plastic grocery bag makes it less messy.

I use mine for a weeks worth of dirty clothes for two adults. By the seventh day its a tad over full but I expected that. All in all, I love it.

Are you pulling enough of the blue liner/bag down? I tie a knot at the end and pull it till it is long enough to hit the bottom when the genie lid is closed. Once it starts to fill up and I notice the diapers don't drop down anymore, that is when I empty. I also notice it works better on a hard surface rather than carpet. I hope this helps you.

It won't get full to the top, especially if you are emptying it a few times a day. You just squeeze it a little to release the suction and pull it out!

The inside basket is black plastic, quite strong. Treat it with some care and it will last a long time. It is easier to clean than a steel one would be. Not that it needs regular cleaning, but an occasional wipe down doesn't hurt. It fits fairly snug inside the steel outer can; it sits on a hard plastic lip inside the can, a lip on the plastic basket slips right into the lip for a good seal so garbage shouldn't fall down inside. The lid is hard black plastic. I don't care for the bags the manufacturer sells, they fit snugly (almost too snug) but I can fill one up in a day, two at the most and I'm the only one that uses it. I use regular plastic garbage bags, and then use a small bungie type cord that I slide down over the plastic bag to hold the extra plastic it in place. Then when I take the garbage out, I have enough room to put all the other garbage from the three small wastebaskets in my apartment, and thus have one bag to carry downstairs. With the manufacturer's bags, if I fill up their bag, there is no room left for anything else.

5 inches at the opening BUT it narrows to 4 inches on the bottom. It is actually quite roomy and holds a lot of stuff. This translates to a bit large. Ex: it is too tall to fit under my kitchen sink because of the garbage disposal, however it does fit under the bathroom sink but does not leave much space for anything else. Make sure to measure the space where you want to store it.

The basket is 22 in. long 13 in. wide and the depth is 8 in. Lucy weights 13 lbs. Sometimes she sits up and other time she lays down. Should the basket get dirty you can wipe it down. Also the net is good for any dog or cat that might be a jumper. The hood is for hot sun. It's a bargain and so far has held up well.
